"Evidence for a large exomoon orbiting Kepler-1625b"

Saikruba Krishnan (CAMK, Warsaw)

Exomoons are the natural satellites of planets orbiting stars outside our solar system, of which there are currently no confirmed examples. In a recent work, Alex Teachey and David M. Kipping, present new observations of a candidate exomoon associated with Kepler-1625b using the Hubble Space Telescope to validate or refute the moon’s presence. http://advances.sciencemag.org/content/4/10/eaav1784
